Chapter 116: Family Gathering
From the end of September to mid-October, the Facebook case was the focus of attention, not only because the company itself was extremely topical, but also because it was the first organization in the field to turn public behavior into data, and then data into revenue, and its outcome has far-reaching implications for later companies. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Liang Baoguang knows that Facebook is actually carrying the black pot for others, which is already being taught in the top five business schools in the United States, and their system is stolen from Amazon, but Amazon is well hidden and their database has been broken by hackers. Usually hackers do this kind of thing either out of interest to challenge themselves or extort money for a quick buck, Mark Zuckerberg would have liked these hackers to contact him to discuss the price, but what he didn't know was that people had already received pay from Liang Baoguang.
A cybercrime case that was not too complicated was hyped into a major public information security case that attracted the attention of the whole United States in just a few weeks, and Facebook also changed from a victim to a criminal suspect. Most analysts believe that Google is the one who is the troublemaker, because they have the greatest energy and the highest efficiency, while others tend to think that Yahoo has made a move, because they have the deepest grudge against Facebook, and there is no one who can associate such a big event that can change the pattern of the industry with Liang Baoguang.
The reason why Liang Baoguang did this, it was certainly an opportunity to be tricked by someone, but what really made him decide to die was his in-depth communication with Alexandra Daddario. If you want to show your strength in a new place, shouting "borrow a piece of treasure land from you" is useless, you have to borrow the momentum, and borrowing the momentum is not to borrow if you want to, Liang Baoguang wants to create a "momentum" that is beneficial to him.
"Paul, you're younger than I thought you were." Old Daddario stood at the door to greet Liang Baoguang in person, and immediately after seeing people, he was very interested in this young man who had easily stirred up the storm after coming to New York for less than a year, so he asked his daughter to bring people to the house for dinner.
"Grass!" This word appears more frequently in Chinese-speaking groups than national scolding, but Liang Baoguang doesn't want to scold people as soon as they meet, it's really so domineering when Italians greet them.
βCiaoοΌβ Old Daddario was obviously very happy when he heard Italian, and he felt that Liang Baoguang had done his homework and valued their family very much. Even in the second and third generations of expatriates, Italian-Americans follow the traditions of their homeland and use the language of their homeland, and homesickness is one of their most important cultural symbols.
Italians are hospitable and family-oriented, and if you are invited, you must go, especially if you are invited to be entertained at home, you cannot refuse it, otherwise you may go straight from friend to enemy. Although Liang Baoguang was surprised that the family invited him to the family dinner so early, since he had invited him, of course, the sooner the cooperation between the two sides began, the better it would be for them.
"Paul, you're here." Alexandra Daddario ran over happily, and she was followed by a big black and shiny dog, seeing that her dog had taken a vigilant posture towards Liang Baoguang, she hurriedly grabbed its collar and continued to reassure, "This is Pedro, the most loyal guard of our family." β
"A good alert dog indeed." Liang Baoguang squatted down with a smile and reached out to touch Pedro's head without fear, he had heard of rumors of Italians treating pets as family, and had heard Alexandra Daddario talk about the dog before.
Old Daddario was very surprised, Pedro is a rather tall adult Kasro dog, and has been training guard dogs according to the requirements of the police force, Liang Baoguang is not afraid of this kind of large dog, but this dog actually looks obedient and lets him touch his head, it is incredible, "Paul, this guy is very close to you." β
"Maybe it's because I have the ability to communicate with dogs." Liang Baoguang smiled brightly, but his eyes never left the big guy named Pedro in front of him, where did he have any ability to communicate with dogs, but he just relied on the momentum on his body to suppress the other party.
It is said that the lions on the grassland can sometimes make the herbivores twitch and wait for death with just one look, and the ancient generals can also scare off the three armies with a single drink, which is the use of momentum. Liang Baoguang, as the son of Liang Gesheng, is certainly not a weak man who grew up in a honey pot, and I don't know how many people want the lives of their father and son, and he once killed the vicious Newburyton with a dagger in an attack against him.
Compared to Newberryton, Kasro is too obedient and cute.
When Americans meet Italians, they always mention a movie called "The Godfather", but the D'Addario family is not only not involved in that kind of thing, but they are also evil nemesis. Old Daddario is the district prosecutor of New York, that is, the DA that often appears in American dramas, his wife is a famous big man in the Big Apple, and his father Old Daddario is the state legislator of New York State.
"Paul, how is your studio?" Old Dadario asked casually during the meal.
"It's just a small fight, it's just getting started now, and it's hard to say anything about the future." Liang Baoguang shrugged, the American film market is also very sluggish, and the screenwriters feel that the treatment does not meet psychological expectations, and the Screenwriters Guild is on strike, causing the filming of many works to run into trouble.
Old Daddario is a state legislature, and in film and television works, he is the last villain to appear, not to mention all the big and small things in New York State, but as long as he investigates the things with his heart, he will always know a thing or two, "You have a lot of money, how can it be a small fight...... Oh, don't get me wrong, I just happen to have two old friends in the bank. β
"Sandra loves movies, and you can fulfill her wishes a little more in the future." The elder Daddario wanted his daughter to enter politics, but now that things have come to this point, he has no problem as a father, and now he finds that there are people in Hollywood who can help the family, so he simply accepts this fact.
Liang Baoguang is always misunderstood as an idealist by the people around him, but in fact he is a very realistic person, if he can get what he wants through compromise, he will not hesitate to do it, "Of course, Sandra has experience and talent in films, and she will come out soon." β
Italian cuisine is very different from French cuisine in that there is only one set of utensils when eating, unlike a French dinner with a lot of confusing things in front of you, but Italian cuisine has to change the utensils every time you go after a dish. The host or the restaurant will help the guests choose the most suitable tableware for the dish and serve it together, which not only saves the pain of choice, but also allows guests from other cultures to worry about "dining etiquette". This is friendly to the guests, but it stretches out the time of a meal, and it often takes more than an hour to finish a large meal.
The people of the Celestial Empire have always been known for their high context and euphemism, but the Italians are even better, everyone obviously has a stomach to express, but the scene is really like a family party, and in the end, Liang Baoguang couldn't help but open his tone first, "I don't know if you have paid attention to the recent news, Facebook has brought everyone to a wonderful situation." β
"Of course I've heard about it, but it doesn't have much to do with us, does it?" The elder Daddario knew that the big boss behind Twitter was Liang Baoguang, but he felt that if Facebook's model was really rejected by the American market, then Twitter, as a company of the same type, would not be pleased.
"Yes, not only does it matter, but it has a lot to do with it." Liang Baoguang had already done his homework before he arrived, and as a skilled lobbyist, he always knew how to impress the target, "We are working well, and there will be a Mr. D'Addario United Senator in the near future." β
The identity of a member of the Senate of the United States of America is very tempting for the old man of the D'Addario family, he is now only a state legislator of New York State, and it is not easy to climb to the top position, and now Liang Baoguang said that there is a way to push him to that position, and immediately sat upright, "Do you have a way to help me get on the throne?" β
"There's nothing I can do to help you, it's all going to be your own effort." Liang Baoguang smiled unfathomably, a person who loves to laugh is always easy to have a good impression, as for those men with a poker face and thin lips and phoenix eyes, they can't find friends just because of the decay of the lonely star that day.
"So should we stand up and call for legislation to protect public information security at this time?" Old Daddario has also often heard calls from outside recently, and many "people of insight" are calling for legislation to protect the public's information privacy, and New York State, as the most progressive state in the United States, is the hottest in the world.
Liang Baoguang shook his finger, "On the contrary, we want to take a clear stand against the bill on the protection of personal information. β
"What, are you serious?" Old Daddario was a little confused, and it was easy to be torn apart by the angry masses when he stood up against it at this time.
"Of course I'm serious, you have to figure out whether you want to be on the side of the American people or the side of the U.S. government." This choice is actually not difficult to make, in a country like the United States that relies on money to speak, the voice of the people does not matter at all, otherwise there will not be a bunch of people who jump out to oppose the expansion of medical insurance, "BigData is the trend of the times, and it will become an important tool for all walks of life in the future. β
